If you are visiting this page, you are probably a lover of delicious recipes and may even be a “foodie.” Life is meant to be enjoyed and isn’t food a large part of that? It is for me and I can’t imagine going without it. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I am so excited to be hosting an online virtual food drive to benefit the more than 16 million children struggling with hunger in the U.S. As a mother of two beautiful children, this is a cause that gets to me on a personal level. I can’t imagine my children going without, and making delicious meals for them is the highlight of my day. I have often wondered about the children who go without and wish that they could be a part of my table as well. In that spirit, I have found a way to do just that and so can you! I have partnered with the Unilever’s Project Sunlight and Feeding America in their effort to end child hunger in America. I have set up an official Cooking Classy virtual food drive. I will be personally donating and urge you to do the same. Please visit the Cooking Classy Virtual Food Drive page and donate. I have set a goal of $1,000 and hope that you will help me reach it! Any amount will help! Let’s help end child hunger in america together!

Pumpkin Pie Tarts

Now for these delicious Pumpkin Pie Pop Tarts, you guys have got to try these! They are melt-in-your-mouth delicious and they’re no doubt one of the best things I’ve made this fall. Something that qualifies for a breakfast pastry or a dessert has got to be good, right? They have a perfectly spiced and creamy pumpkin pie filling which is surrounded by the most amazingly flaky pie-like crust and they’re finished with a simple and sweet vanilla frosting to generously cover. How could you go wrong here? You are basically getting hand-holdable mini pumpkin pies with the bonus of icing and sprinkles. And we are talking like 1,000 times better than what you could get in a box, trust me I’ve tried some. The question you’re going to ask is “Can I use refrigerated pie crust or puff pastry?” Yes! This homemade pastry is easy and delicious, but you can use pre-made crust as a shortcut.

Pumpkin Tarts: Breakfast or Dessert?

These would be perfect to serve to family or guests for Thanksgiving breakfast. They can be made weeks in advance so you won’t have to worry that day about what you are going to make, they’ll just be waiting to be baked in the freezer and then stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for a quick breakfast… or snack? That’s right, these pumpkin pie spice tartlets are just as delicious as a fall dessert. Break out of your pumpkin cookies rut and make something new, with flaky, golden brown pie crust, satisfying pumpkin filling, cool frosting, and fun sprinkles in every batch! I love that these are something that everyone will enjoy, both young and old alike, so no matter whom you are serving them to they are nearly guaranteed to be a hit. I think I better go have another before they disappear, they’re calling my name and I just can’t resist. Enjoy! And please don’t forget to donate to such a great cause! Thanks so much for your help, it is so appreciated!
